In speaking with hospice providers, I frequently hear many of them say ‘I don’t think we’re ready yet to submit a nomination…” But I can attest that many of these organizations do have programs that are worth nominating for The Circle of Life Award says J. Donald Schumacher, NHPCO president and CEO.
“In fact, many hospice providers have found that the thorough process of submitting a nomination has led to unexpected sense of satisfaction and accomplishment. So I encourage hospices to look into nominating their worthwhile programs.”
